... meet them or see them out of habit. I've gotten a few looks. Also ordering food and normal daily activities - I'll catch myself trying to speak in Spanish. whoops. It's just weird being back in the states. Good, but weird.

I love seeing all of my friends and family. I love the Christmas decorations! I can't wait to go shopping and look at all of the lights around town. Drink hot chocolate. Go ice ...

... Jill, and her family. Most of these days included lots of food and good times at Jill's house, and several Scrabble games each visit with Mom (and yes, she still beats me most of the time!)

I've heard that photo uploading has been improved and is quicker now here at TravelPod, which means I may be better at keeping you all updated as we move on. One of the things I have been ...

Cedar Point Amusement Park is located on the beautiful shores of Lake Erie in Sandusky, Ohio. It is the land of fun and thrills with over 75 rides and attractions. Cedar Point offers the best in roller coaster thrills.

There's lots for kids also. In fact, a section of the park called "four kids' areas" offers 30 rides and attractions for "just their size". These shots were taken especially for our nieces and nephews.

On September 10, 1813, Commodore Oliver Hazaard Perry defeated and captured a British squandron of warships at the Battle of Lake Erie. The battle, fought during the War of 1812, secured control of Lake Erie for the United States and enabled General William Harrison to conduct a successful invasion of Western Upper Canada.

The memorial commemorates Perry's defeat but more importantly it celebrates the lasting peace between the United States and Canada.

... there. It was worth it. We stopped by the Cleveland Brown stadium next door to their gift shop but it was closed - it was 5pm - cool looking stadium. We decided to put Steak n Shake into our GPS and sure enough there was one near by and we were off for our 2nd visit - once again yummy! We headed back to Jett and the camper - he was great and excited to see us! We just hung out - played on Facebook and called it a night!

Miles driven: 810
Wildlife seen: 3 Deer (Oh boy!)

Highlights: Uhmmmmm..... Not necessarily a highlight but we must have passed a bazillion stalks of corn while driving. Actually, nothing too exciting today, we just racked up a "few" miles on the truck getting from point A to point B. Luckily, we had great ...

Just wanted to upload some more pictures of our life and times around Cedarlane RV Park. We're both working LOTS of hours (~40/week apiece), which is more than we had expected...but it will certainly help the finances, which is why we're doing what we're doing!

... that the tourist season hasn't yet begun, we weren't able to take an official tour (not sure that climbing that many steps would be a good thing, anyhow!), but we enjoyed the outside of the lighthouse and the pretty park surrounding it. Of course - I took lots of pictures

... leafless, erect stalk
topped with a solitary flower. All individuals within a given population tend to bloom about the
same time, producing the spectacular effect of a golden blanket
across the rocky landscape. All the flower heads track the sun across
the sky in unison. After about a week, the double notched petals fade
before falling.
We were lucky enough (totally by accident!) to be there during their single blooming week!

... peeing with rain at this point and a bit chilly so I grab our hoodies from the car and get in to look at the map. Once in the car I notice that we're in a one way bit and there's no route back out the car park, only a sign saying, 'If you are past this sign...', which we are, '...you must proceed to Canada.'. Oh dear. This can't be right, so off I trot back into the Duty Free shop, where the assistant behind the Clinique counter informs me that we can't go back the way ...
